“We have been here and got beat a lot worse than we did today, but today I feel ten times worse just because of the fact that we were in the game for long spells and we didn’t get out of the game what we should have done.

“We analyse every game going forward and a lot of things we saw were really good, the shape of the team was excellent for long spells, we restricted Celtic to playing on the sides and hitting long diagonals for a lot of the game to try to play through us.

“I thought a lot of our players played well today. It’s so frustrating to be saying that and at the same time be looking at a 3-1 score.”
